We knew last year that Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis would be lady lovers in Black Swan, director Darren Aronofsky’s December psychological thriller about a hyper-competitive ballet dancer. Now, a trailer, where their characters make out! And a sneak peek at the script reveals one “basically … rapes” the other. So, that counts for lesbian fare, yes?

Now this isn’t really a plot spoiler, since I haven’t read the script (and Aronofsky doesn’t return my calls), but part of me wants to believe Mila’s character actually doesn’t exist and is just Natalie’s alter ego, forcing her to find her “darkness” (read: her black swan) and turns her into a crazy bitch. I’ll watch it either way.
